Family Renewal Shelter - About FRS

More Stories of Hope

“It has been many years since our paths crossed but I want to write and say thank you from the fullness of my heart. I am eternally grateful for you being there when I stood alone. You covered me with your caring. You helped me fight against the river of insanity. It felt like I struggled for the longest time against a living Death that wanted to pull me down stream. You stood with me and helped to lift my head till I began to see daylight. Despite my age you stood with me…Thank you for believing I was worth saving…Thank you Family Renewal Shelter for the room that was just right for me. I remember feeling safe and feeling like a princess”

“Living at I.I. (transitional house) allowed me the time to find affordable housing…The house even had a feeling of comfort and love. I could not have asked for a better place to transition. My experience with FRS was above and beyond what I ever could have expected. I came to FRS with little hope of living a ‘normal’ life. Thanks to FRS and I.I. my son and myself will live a normal life. It is because of this agency that I am now continuing my education and have a positive future. I thank God everyday for the support that I received during that extremely challenging time.”
